Love the Asheboro Sunsets

I will have to say that this part of the state and county have the nicest sunsets. They occur on a pretty regular basis. The sun sets behind a small hill and when there are just thin cloud cover, the light reflects so nicely. My instructors were right. Dawn and Sunset do have beautiful light. The sunrise comes up over another hill and although it, per se, doesn't look spectacular, you can watch the opposite hills light up as the light moves. That in itself can be pretty magical. I have a friend from Colorado who says their sunsets are even better. I sure do want to go there some day and check them out. They have mountains in that part of their state and I am pretty sure it would be glorious. It is on my bucket list.

I found out that Greyhound has an unlimited ticket program that you buy as one week, two weeks or a month and can ride anywhere as many times as you want. I've never been to the Grand Canyon, or Arches National Park. I would love to take a tent, sleeping bag and my camera backpack and tripod and just go for a month and see these places as well as my dear friends in Colorado and California. I would also go back to Mono Lake and Yosemite. It was around 1984 the last time I went.
